Good Day. I'm on lamivudine and zidovudine 150/300 for pep, I'm concerned about the type of food and drinks I'm not supposed to consume amongst other stuff.

You shouldn't have alcohol and such foods as high-fat meals or grapefruit juice since sometimes, they may interact with many medications. It is also advisable to discuss with your health care provider in case of any anxiety or doubts concerning your medication.

Female | 21

Moringa may some­times interfere­ with how the body absorbs HIV drugs, potentially reducing the­ir effectivene­ss. If you experience­ new symptoms like nausea or dizzine­ss, it could result from the interaction be­tween Moringa and your HIV medications. Consulting your doctor is advisable­ to ensure safety and prope­r synergy betwee­n Moringa and your prescribed HIV treatme­nt.

I am supposed to see my doctor again in 5 months after she diagnosed me with anemia and prescribed iron tablets. I now have acne thqt is so bad, i striggle to poop and my vagina bleeds even though I don't have my period and the bllos is brown

Female | 25

Acne­, difficulty pooping, and vaginal bleeding are se­parate issues nee­ding attention. Hormonal changes or diet ofte­n cause acne. Pooping trouble could re­late to anemia or lack of fiber. Vaginal ble­eding may stem from an infection or hormonal imbalance­. These symptoms require­ discussing with a healthcare provider for prope­r treatment.

Fever above 103 & 104 from yesterday night. Consumed calpol but is not reduced.

Male | 61

A fever of 103 to 104 indicates an infection, such as the flu, a bacterial infection, or a urinary tract infection. Taking Calpol can help, but if it doesn't, you might need a different medication. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids, rest, and stay cool. If the fever doesn't decrease, seek medical help.

I am 23 year old female and I have bruise on my leg and arm without hitting last 3 year continuously.. I didn't eat any medicine.. so what should I do?

Female | 23

As for bruising, it occurs if the blood vessels near the skin's surface are injured. This condition might be the result of different reasons, such as a decrease in platelets, vitamin deficits, or even a blood disorder. Insist on having a balanced diet with a sufficient amount of vitamins and iron. If the problem does not wane, it is important to seek help from a doctor for a thorough check-up.

Child age is 14, having fever 103,104... severe headache, vomiting. What medicine can we give

Male | 14

I would suggest neither of the medicines to be taken without a doctor's consultation. Fever of 103-104°F accompanied with the headache and vomiting is a sign of a severe infection. It is significant to consult a pediatrician as a matter of priority in the diagnosis and treatment of the condition.

recently i am thinking of taking supplement for my body for general fitness , supplements like (fishoil, multivitamin, zinc, magnesium, ashwagandha and collagen supplement and creatine) so my concern is is it safe to take all these supplement all together in right dosage

Male | 20

It is essential to note your health and consult with a doctor before beginning any new protocol of supplementation. Hence, though there are some benefits to these supplements, when taking them together the risk of side effects increases. I highly suggest that one obtains the services of a dietician or nutritionist who will advise the correct dosage and possible interactions.

I have a fever, I have taken a Dolo tablet sinceafter my dinner later suddenly my hands and feet started turning cold and later I started to experience a pin sensation in my head

Female | 45

You may have reacted to the Dolo tablet you took. Sometimes, some individuals can be afflicted by such side effects as feeling cold, numbness in their head, or tingling feelings. The symptoms you are experiencing may well be due to an allergic reaction. You should stop taking the medication immediately and consult a doctor for assistance. They will be able to diagnose what is causing the problem and give you the necessary treatment options.

Feeling dizzy, weak, and unable to concentrate can be signs of various health issues, including anemia, low blood pressure, or nutritional deficiencies. It is important to consult a general physician or an internal medicine specialist to identify the cause and get proper treatment. Please visit your doctor as soon as possible for a thorough evaluation.

I stapled my thumb at work on Friday. (Preschool classroom, the staples had briefly fallen on the floor prior). It was in there pretty well. I pulled it out, it did bleed, I cleaned it out with soapy water and then 50% isopropyl alcohol. I have not gotten a tetanus vaccine booster in the last 10 years. I have a doctor appointment on Monday. If I have been exposed to tetanus, will it be too late for me to get a booster? What are the chances I could have it now?

Female | 34

I urge you to see a doctor immediately. Tetanus toxoid is required to be administered within 5 days of injury like the one you have to prevent the disease. It is hard to say if the person gets tetanus or not without biomedical proof. You need to see a doctor who is a specialist in infectious diseases.
